Antimicrobial resistant enteric bacteria are widely distributed amongst people, animals and the environment in Tanzania
10 February 2020
Antibiotic use and bacterial transmission are responsible for the emergence, spread and persistence of antimicrobial-resistant (AR) bacteria, but their relative contribution likely differs across varying socio-economic, cultural, and ecological contexts. To better understand this interaction in a multi-cultural and resource-limited context, the authors examine the distribution of antimicrobial-resistant enteric bacteria from three ethnic groups in Tanzania.
